La Conner Anchorage

Drop anchor here in the Swinomish Channel, a narrow waterway separating Fidalgo Island from the mainland, right on the doorstep of one of Washington's most charming historic towns. La Conner dates back to the 1860s and sits on the Skagit River delta, so you're surrounded by rich agricultural lowlands, wildlife, and that quietly spectacular Pacific Northwest scenery. From here you can easily dinghy ashore to explore the waterfront galleries, restaurants, and shops that make this town a genuine destination rather than just a waypoint.
